Organiser's description

All proceeds from this event will support the Love Like Alissa Scholarship Fund, providing scholarships to graduating senior volleyball players from Mid-Carolina High School, Newberry High School, and Newberry Academy who are pursuing higher education.

These scholarships honor Alissas memory and her love for volleyball while recognizing student-athletes who demonstrate leadership, kindness, teamwork, dedication, and compassion both on and off the court.

Through these scholarships, we hope to carry forward Alissas legacy by encouraging young women to chase their dreams, believe in themselves, and make a positive difference in the lives of others.

Because this race is about more than reaching the finish line. it's about honoring a life, inspiring kindness, and helping dreams become reality.

Be the reason someone feels supported, encouraged, and inspired.
